In honor of the rescue, the pub will introduce a new brew, Velvet Oatmeal Porter, named for the pooch who was stranded on the mountain with his owner, Matty Bryant of Southeast Portland. Velvet, who has become a celebrity of sorts since his misadventure, will also be on hand at the fundraiser.

Bryant was with Velvet when a climb up Mount Hood with seven friends went bad Feb. 18. Bryant and two others were roped to the dog when they stepped over a ledge and tumbled into the White River Canyon.

Five climbers were rescued that night, but Bryant, 34; Christina Redl, 26; and Kate Mary Hanlon, 34, spent the next 12 hours huddled with Velvet in a driving snowstorm before they were rescued by search-and-rescue volunteers.
